Released February 2, 2019 OH SINNER PEOPLE  is my adaptation the powerful Song 'Sinnerman'. I first heard it sung by the Legendary Nina Simone (EMI) I believed it to be a Traditional Gospel Song, but, while researching I found the Lester Baxter Recording on waltervdbus YouTube Channel with this explanation for its origin "First recording by Les Baxter Orchestra featuring Will Holt Chorus of 'Sinner Man' (Baxter/Holt), possibly better known through later versions by The Weavers (1959), Nina Simone (1964) and Peter Tosh (1966/1971/1977), among many others. The song is clearly adapted from the 1954 gospel tune 'On Judgement Day' (Peacock 1743) by The Sensational Nightingales."

A Special Thank You to President Higgins Magic is in the Archives of The Irish National Library


A track I wrote with David and Curtis Lugay back in the 80's. My Lyrics describe the madness of party living as I saw it. Many years later at Roslyn Park Collage I gathered some skills and began making Video/Animations in a bid to explain my words. In IF IT'S MAGIC the only people who benefit from the use of hard Drugs are the Cruel Powerful Suppliers.


Over the years The track has become a Brit Funk Classic.

It was re-released in 2017 by French Label Chuwanaga on their Album 'IN THE RED' Label: Chuwanaga.

I was glad to learn the Multi Media skills at Roslyn Park College, Sandymount, Dublin

After Years of Shocks and Homelessness I could hardly hold a conversation without tears I was now hyper vigilant and agoraphobic but the Teachers and Advisors stood by me, my Eternal Thanks all of them

I wrote YOU TOO and 'Lonely Times' after a complex struggle and living in 'Emergency Accommodation'. On my way back through central Dublin the Pace of my walking and the view of some Bunk Beds in the window of a Hostel triggered the flow of words and music into my note book as walked describing all on my way, hey you too
